Comments:My maternal grandfather's name is Charles Joseph Blomquist. I know he had a sister named Joy. His parents divorced and the judge ordered that he and his sister be put into an orphanage because his parents both wanted them and couldn't come to an agreement. The judge decided that neither one of the parents would get them. I haven't found much about his family. I know that he married Helen Rose Marie Martel and they had 16 children together. Maybe we are related somehow.

If you like you can send me a picture on the house and we will control if it is correct.

Today I mailed out 26 letters to Blomquist's in Wisconsin in hopes of locating a relative from my Grandmother's Mothers side. My Blomquist ancestors settled in the town of Woodville, Wisconsin in 1903.
If you are curious about where my research has taken me, you go to Google and type in Norway farms Prestvik and see how fortunate that I have been so far to discover information and cousins.
Take care & I'd enjoy hearing from you... :)

Just googled "Blomquist" for fun and came across your site. Sounds like were from a different line, as I don't recognize any of the names you were doing research on.

Were busy starting life over on a quarter section of land in Endako. Just draw an "X" on B.C. and you'll pass through the house.

If your ever in the area, drop in and we can compare Swedish recipes..

Comments:Nice Web site! I have several Blomquists in my family tree. The Blomquist line in my family started with Gustaf Robert Blomquist (b. 1871 in Stockaryd, Smaland, Sweden. He emigrated to Brockton, Massachusetts and married my great grandmother's sister Amanda Anderson (also from Sweden) in 1891. Their children, born in Brockton and Quincy, MA were:
Amy (1892, Knute Edward (1895), Florence (1897), Amy (1900), Helen (1902), Gustaf Stanley (1908), Roy and Vivienne (twins b. 1912). The first Amy and Roy died as children. Gustaf Robert Blomquist died in Massachusetts in 1951 and Amanda died in CT (Groton, I think) in 1965. Several in the family moved to Connecticut. Sadly, I lost my last contact with this branch of the family, when Vivienne died in Feb 2000. Vivienne was a professor at Wheaton College, and I believe others in the family may have attended Wheaton College.

I would love to hear from anyone who believes they may descend from this family!

Sincerely,
Bob Shoring (San Francisco)

Comments:Hello, I think I stumbled across your site a loooong time ago. I even sent an email. I see since then you have added a guestbook. It is interesting to read through comments from other "Blomquist"s.

My Grandfather Edwin Michael Blomquist came over in the late 1800's through Ellis Island in New York. He married Pauline Daniels from MN and I am fairly certain he had some brothers or cousins living in MN. Ediwn, or E.M. Blomquist lived nearly his entire life in Michigan's Upper Penninsula which is farily similar to the land he came from Sweden.

I have been told Blomquist means "blooming twig" in Swedish, but I never bothered to cofirm it. This may be jsut another one of my Grandfather's jokes I still cherish so many years after his death.

I work in a very large company and used to see a Diane Blomquist (same as my Aunt) in Minnesota working for the same company. an't find that any more. However, a few years ago my company bought a Swedish company and suddenly I was surrounded by Blomquists in teh company directory. Many of the Swedish Blomquists use a "V" instead of a "U". This causes me to receive many Swedish emails for a Dan Blomqvist in Sweden, usually in Swedish.

I'll check back here from time to time. Feel free to check my site as well. Not much for Family history at this point. My Father claims to be working on some family history and my uncle traveled to Sweden this mast summer to visit some of our distant relatives. Perhaps I can include some of that information on my site in the future for others to review.

Comments:Hello. My name is Tim Mitchell. I have been doing some off-and-on research on the internet regarding my family's history. I am not a seasoned geneologist, but have gathered some notes on my ancestors. As I was looking for information on my Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather by the name of John Mitchell. I noticed your Mitchell information about your ancestor William Mitchell. Information that I have about John Mitchell was that we was born around 1770 in Virginia, then later moved to Gallatin, Ky. I couldn't help but wonder for a minute if William and John Mitchell may be brothers? I then noticed your information on John Spearman Rutherford. My records indicate that he was my also one of my ansestors. He married a woman by the name of Jane. They had a daughter by the name of Mary Rutherford (commonly called "Polly"). Mary (Polly) Rutherford married Dudley Mitchell, who was John Mitchell's eldest son. I am a decendent of Dudley and Mary (Polly) Mitchell.

Do you have any information regarding John Mitchell? It would be very interesting to determine if he and William were indeed brothers.

This Gary Mackin. I think you might be the same Tim Blomquist I knew in El Centro, California. This was way back in 1972 to 1976. We lost contact after I joined the Air Force in 1979. Came to visit in late 79 when you were at Tucson. I see you have used our filming of Night Stalker to good use! Guess where I am? Scotland! A place called Dunfermline in the county of Fife. Have been in Europe since 1980. Had to go back to the States for some training between 86-88. But most of the time have lived in England or Germany. Good to see you again. Congradulations on having such a nice family. I have also married and have 3 boys and the youngest of 4 is a girl. I think Angie and I will stop now. After retiring from the Air Force I stayed here in the U.K. and then moved north to Scotland. Going part-time to Stirling University. Trying to get a degree in History. Take care. Bye!
